Description: The number of printer ports supported on this network system, i.e., the number of entries in the 'ppmPortTable' below, or zero if no printer ports are currently configured.

What is ppmGeneralNumberOfPorts?

This Gauge32 reports the number of printer ports supported on this network system, corresponding to the number of rows in the ppmPortTable. Monitoring tools use it as a quick sanity check on port inventory size before enumerating ppmPortTable entries, with zero indicating no ports are configured. For example, a print server offering both an LPR queue and a raw port-9100 queue for the same printer would report 2 here.
